Unfortunately, sometimes an error can slip through and, alas, we missed printing the templates required for the Pomegranate Panache quilt created by Michelle Marvig in Homespun Vol 8 No 3. Although readers can still create the quilt by purchasing the specialty rulers from Michelle, readers were given the option of making their own templates in our instructions. We apologise that the templates were missed when checking our pattern sheets. The templates can be found here. Alternatively, telephone Sarah Tonkin on (02) 9887 0364 or email your postal details to stonkin@universalmagazines.com.au and she will mail you a hard copy.

The Silly Season Begins Part Two
To all of you who are looking for the two small templates from Block 2 of The Silly Season Begins - Part Two, yes, they were accidentally left off the pattern sheet so please accept our apologies! These were the star in the righthand corner and the bird shape atop the tree. Please print them out (making sure your printer setting is set to "no scaling" or the equivalent) here and here. Also in the instructions for Part Two of The Silly Season Begins quilt, step 16 says to cut the chook strip in four rectangles each 6in long. This should actually be 6 1/2 in long.
Issue 8.9
Wisteria Girls
Apologies to those of you who created the Wisteria Girls quilt from Homespun Vol 8 No 9. Please note that the last sentence in step 27 should read "Repeat with a total of five of the dark green squares", not all of the remaining dark green squares. Issue 8.11
A Woman's Glam Bag
A technical hiccup has meant that the stitchery and appliqué designs for A Woman's Glam Bag published in Homespun Vol 8 No 11 were printed on the pattern sheet larger than they should have been (including the appliquéd heart). To overcome this error, copy the designs on a photocopier set at 85%. Alternatively, telephone Editor Bianca Tzatzagos on (02) 9887 0332 or email your postal details to btzatzagos@universalmagazines.com.au and she will mail you a copy of the designs at the correct size. For those of you who have completed your stitchery and/or appliqué at the larger size, we have created an alternate set of instructions here so that you are still able to make the bag. Issue 9.1

14. Join the assorted rectangular scraps cut in step 3 together end to end (and trim them as necessary) to make four strips 14½in long.

Issue 11.1 Village Square Quilt
Variable Star/ Churn Dash complex block - corrections to cutting instructions (steps 54 and 56).
Step 54: The four GG squares should be 2 1/2in, not 2 1/8in as published.
Step 56: The MM rectangles should be cut 1 1/4in x 8 1/2in, not 1 3/4in x 8 1/2in as published. Issue 11.1 Life Is a Celebration Materials List
Unfortunately we have become aware of some confusion regarding the list of materials for the Life Is A Celebration BOM. To clarify - the amount of each fabric listed in our Materials list in Homespun Vol 11 No 1 is sufficient for the block backgrounds and borders, the sashings between the blocks as the quilt top is assembled and all the borders. There is also some surplus of fabrics that could be used for many of the applique shapes - but when drafting the instructions and developing the Materials list, we did not map the size of each and every applique shape and allow sufficient fabric for all of them. That's why the Materials list includes "Assorted scraps from your stash to tone with the French Hatbox fabrics (applique)". The fact that a designer used a French Hatbox fabric for an applique shape doesn't mean that readers are expected to use it, so we have not for catered for this in the material list. Issue 11.2
The phone no for Kathryn O’Beirne of Our Shabby Cottage is incorrect. You can contact her on (03) 5309 2512. Our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused. Issue 11.4
